Recruiting companies aren't in the business of finding good candidates, they are in the business of finding candidates their clients like.

Companies have the same problem the military does. They hire a certain stereotype because they've always hired a certain stereotype and the people in charge match that stereotype.

If there's any opportunity for disruption, it would be at tiny companies where there are people that 1) just need talent and 2) know that they process that made them successful is broken.
